V2L

Vehicle-to-Load: an EV's ability to power external 230V devices from its traction battery via a built-in inverter (e.g. Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6).

The capability is bounded by the vehicle's own inverter rather than by the traction battery: the continuous output, the socket type and whether the function stays available at low state of charge are all set by the carmaker.

Those limits differ between models and are not published by the component reference cited on this page.
